What can blue copper peptide powder do for you?
Blue copper peptide, also known as GHK-Cu, is a complex composed of three amino acids and a copper ion. This complex plays an important role in the physiological process of tissue activation. It is named because it appears blue in aqueous solution. The copper ion Cu2+ is not the yellow color of copper metal, but presents a unique blue color after combining with amino acids.
It is widely present in our plasma and body fluids, and the copper ions it carries are also necessary in human tissues and organs. Studies have shown that it is involved in the linkage of more than 4,000 genes in the human body, so it has a very wide range of functions. As a signal peptide, it can act on the epidermis and dermis, increase skin elasticity and thickness, and restore skin repair ability, so it is also called the "collagen engine". Because of its excellent repair and anti-aging effects, it is known as the ancestor of the peptide, one of the three anti-aging giants. This blog will discuss the health benefits, advantages and precautions of GHK-Cu for the skin.
What are the benefits of blue copper peptide for the skin?
Anti-aging and firming
It can increase cell vitality, stimulate the synthesis of collagen and elastin, and restore the regeneration capacity of dermal fibroblasts without hurting or irritating the skin; improve skin density and firmness, delay skin aging, enhance skin elasticity, and reduce the formation of fine lines and wrinkles.
Anti-inflammatory and repairing damaged skin
It can promote the generation of keratinocytes, increase skin thickness, increase the production of intercellular mucus, and help repair damaged skin barriers; at the same time, it has an inhibitory effect on inflammation, can inhibit the synthesis of inflammatory factors, effectively reduce inflammatory reactions, calm and soothe the skin, and enhance skin resistance, which is especially important for the repair of damaged skin and the care of sensitive skin.
Antioxidant brightening
Its antioxidant effect has been confirmed in in vitro and animal experiments. It can block the formation of reactive oxygen, remove various peroxides, protect keratinocytes from ultraviolet damage, and block free radical damage to the liver and protect the liver. GHK-Cu has an excellent antioxidant effect, which can brighten the skin tone, refine the skin, and prevent skin aging.
Moisturizing and nourishing
After penetrating into the bottom layer of the skin, it can stimulate the vitality of cells, enhance the activity of the skin, make the skin moist and elastic, and exude more luster and moisture from the inside out, so that the skin's own functions are also enhanced to a certain extent.
Anti-aging mechanism of blue copper peptide
Promote collagen and elastin production: It can significantly increase the production of collagen and elastin in adult skin fibroblasts, thereby enhancing the elasticity and firmness of the skin and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
Repair the epidermal junction: By repairing this key skin structure, it helps restore the integrity and resistance of the skin, which is essential for resisting external stress and maintaining skin health.
Anti-inflammatory: It has anti-inflammatory function, can reduce skin inflammation and promote wound healing, which is particularly important for resisting skin aging caused by environmental factors.
Uniqueness of blue copper peptide
1. Difficulty of Synthesis
The synthesis process is full of challenges. It is necessary to ensure that each amino acid is in the correct position and stable and pure, otherwise the efficacy will be greatly reduced, or it will be easy to absorb moisture and decompose during storage.
2. Scarcity of raw materials
Currently, there are not many raw material companies on the market that can stably supply GHK-Cu in large quantities, so there is a certain scarcity from the raw material side.
3. Expensiveness
The price is also very expensive. GHK-Cu has always been called the "Hermes" of raw materials.
Applicable people
Sensitive skin people
Helps soothe sensitive skin, reduce irritation and discomfort.
Damaged dull skin
It has the effect of promoting repair and regeneration of skin damaged by environmental, ultraviolet, cosmetics and other factors.
Relax wrinkled skin
It can stimulate the synthesis of collagen and help improve signs of aging such as sagging skin and fine lines.
Dry and dehydrated skin
It can improve the skin's water retention ability and improve the dry and dehydrated state of the skin.
Main applications
It is widely used in skin care products, especially in anti-aging, repair and essence products. Due to its high cost, it is usually found in high-end skin care brands. It has multiple functions such as anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory, and promoting collagen production. It can improve skin aging, sagging, pigmentation and other problems, making the skin firmer and more elastic. It has a small molecular structure and is easily absorbed by the skin. It can penetrate deep into the bottom layer of the skin, stimulate cell vitality, and reduce the damage of free radicals to the skin.
